Great to meet you!

Hello, I’m Bibi and I love, love, love Angus. Yes, that Angus, or as I think of him: the incomparable lead guitar god from AC/DC. Of course, I love AC/DC: their music, their straight-up, kick ass attitude about rock n roll, their grit and absolute, unwavering dedication to giving us a shake you all night long level of performance every time they take the stage. I think and talk about a lot of things—myself, for example, a fantastic subject-- but also a whole range of fascinating subjects that shall be revealed over time. Since I saw AC/DC in concert for the first time on December 14, 2009, though, it’s all about them and particularly Angus, as you will see. I was most definitely thunderstruck.

As everyone in the free world knows, AC/DC is on a so long- awaited world tour after an extended absence in support of their newest album, Black Ice. Having completely laid waste to the US and parts of Canada late last year—this is when I first saw them in concert on that fateful day--they are currently blazing across Europe, leaving their ecstatic fans exhausted but satisfied—at least until their summer outdoor concert venues begin in May. The guys are up for a short break in early April from their outrageously full concert schedule and will continue their world domination throughout the summer months, culminating in what will very likely be a rock til the stadium comes crashing down in Glasgow on June 30. (Did you notice that U2 wisely won't begin their European tour until AC/DC finishes their tour?) The fabulous, incredible, unbelievable thing is: I plan to see them in Paris on June 12 and in Amsterdam on June 23---Bon Scott type scream here, yes!!! Paris in June...and AC/DC...whoa! The tickets are bought, the reservations all made, the excel file with the outfits planned out is in process…omigod! Also have gotten in contact with Marc in Paris and we’re planning to meet, I’ll finally meet his children, catch up with Jessica—bet the pregnancy will not even have an effect on her; some people! Still hoping that Raymond will be able to come to Paris or at least to Amsterdam to experience AC/DC's effect on thier loyal following.

I've discovered several like-minded AC/DC fans on the web, particularly AC/DC ABRUZZO, an Italian group of fans that has followed the guys for some time now, but for this tour have already seen them in the US and in many of the European cities so far. Their blog is really well-written and they seem like a nice bunch of obsessed guys. There's also the gang that talks on all kinds of AC/DC stuff at acdc.com. Hope to run into some of these folks in Paris and/or Amsterdam. I've followed their comments and concert reviews with avid interest. Another site: AC-DC.net has the best listing of online articles and reviews--great way to follow the group across Europe, links to AC/DC merchandise, including a book which seems to have been written by the guy that owns AC-DC.net--fantastic work!
